Regardless of how I feel about Thom Tillis, it’s a problem that Trump has bullied him out of running again. This is a sure sign of the demise of our government structure. #thomtillis #fdt

If you really want to drive the point home about how fucked up ICE is then people should start forcing Star Wars themes on ICE. Protesters should start playing the imperial march whenever ICE shows up and should also start dressing like the rebel alliance.

The same amount of Guardsmen initially sent in 1992 during the LA riots.

Afterward, additional 10000 were sent.

It ended with 63 people killed, 2000 injured, 11000 arrested.

These protests are not even close to what the LA riots were. There's no need for this.

ABC News are cowards. If our media continue to bend the knee to Trump, we will lose all freedom of press. A giant leap towards a fascist state. Shame on you, ABC.

To the dems that think you’re safe from being primaried: YOU’RE NOT. The left of today do not play party politics. If you vote like a fascist, you’re a fascist and we are not your friend. YOU work for US. If you voted to censure Al Green, say goodbye to your seat.

This is a bigger issue than people realize. Not just jobs lost. But their families losing benefits. Landlords losing tenants. Cities and towns losing revenue. This is how recessions start

Ready Fire Aim is no way to govern.
More accurate, fewer words;

"There are plenty of contractors going under".

A friend furloughed 75% of staff (furlough w/paying for health insurance for three months), 50% exec pay cut, 25% rest of staff to keep as many people w/salary.

PS: Wasn't 18F a government office, not a contractor.

“You don’t get it. He’s firing everyone and shutting down departments indiscriminately to find WASTE and save money!!!”

Right…just like I could probably lose 20 lbs by amputating my legs but I’m sure if I gave it a little more thought I could figure out a better way to go about it

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source.

Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.
